Who we’re looking for:
We are looking for a committed and passionate individual to join our Forensic Investigation team.

• Assist and advise students, supporting their learning and research via demonstrations, tutorials/workshops and provision of training materials.
• Compile reports, undertake risk assessments pertinent to laboratory spaces and have good awareness of health and safety issues in a forensic lab environment.
• Ordering consumables, stock taking and arranging for servicing of laboratory equipment.
• Assisting students in the correct use of equipment and consumables when undertaking independent study.
• Assist and advise students and staff, supporting with research and allied activities throughout the year.
You’ll need to enjoy:
• Working as part of a small team: we are a close and friendly team who regularly mutually support each other.
• Developing your own skills and knowledge: on a number of levels, both in the Forensic Investigation programme and also with other laboratory staff on other programmes.
• Collaborating with others: in working with industry suppliers, partners, staff and students.
• Engaging with technology: we have some of the most up-to-date equipment in our laboratories.
• Research: you can support research from design, through ethical considerations through to collection and analysis.
• Working to your values: we care about how people behave as well as what they achieve.
Where you’ll work:
In this role, you will be part of the Forensic Investigation team on our green campus in the north of Plymouth. In order to be successful in this role, you will be required to work on site.
